The Tales of a Gay Goblin

Like, the animation industry already has to deal with blacklisting and sexual harassment and toxic work culture. These artists have really shown that nothing has changed for the better. Chris Savino and John K. might be out, but the practices that protected them and kept them around for so long are still being put into practice. 

Hannah Ayoubi is a storyboard artist formerly on Amphibia who drew and encouraged ship art of a minor and an adult on a children’s show.

Sofia E Alexander is an executive producer and showrunner for children’s shows explicitly threatened to blacklist anyone opposed or concerned over Hannah’s behavior. This is unacceptable. 

Jessica A.M and Anna Lencioni vehemently defended them and didn’t think that pedophiliaic drawings are a big deal. 

And you know what the worst part is? They’re all going to get away with it. They are going to go on their merry way and just pretend like their behavior is acceptable because they have connections. The system protects them. 

They work on children’s shows when they SHOULD NOT BE. This is unprofessional and should be grounds for termination in any other industry, but apparently in the animation industry this shit makes you look cool or something??? Wtf 

People who openly encourage this shit create the next Chris Savino and John Lasseter. This is how it starts people. Chris Savino blacklisted female artists who opposed his behavior or wouldn’t sleep with him. 

And do you know why it took a huge amount of effort to take Chris Savino down? They had to find a loophole and they had to get a crowd to make it happen. Giving him a show only let him have more access to victims. 

Here’s a video to explain just how much work it took:

These are not isolated incidents. This happens because people in the industry keep doing this shit. When they aren’t looking the other way, they use blacklisting, intimidation, and defend inappropriate behavior.  It’s still happening.

Looking the other way on gross behavior is an industry standard in animation. Don’t even kid yourself, they’ve done this before. Maybe not online, maybe not where you can see it, but they’ve done it before. Probably more times than we realize. 

You know what? All this discourse has reminded me of something.

About nine years ago a video went viral of two little girls who were probably no older than six singing “Super Bass” by Nicki Minaj. It blew up so much that the girls actually got onto Ellen where they did it again.

And weirdly enough... nobody saw issue with that. Not once during this year-long stretch of viral fame did anybody stop and go “Hang on... WHY THE FUCK ARE TWO SIX YEAR OLDS BEING ALLOWED TO LISTEN TO NICKI FUCKING MINAJ SONGS IN THE FIRST PLACE?!”

They weren’t singing a tame song. It’s a very sexual song, and it even has the N-Word in it. We can argue Minaj’s merits as an artist until the cows come home, but it’s pretty obvious that children should not be listening to her work.

And yet they are. In fact when I was a kid, the artists everyone was listening to were the most horny, aggressively mysogynistic scumbags I’ve ever fucking seen. The music industry has been hornier than a busload of weebs for years and it’s only getting worse.

And we never question that. Sometimes we fucking celebrate it, all the while just letting that material fester in the minds of children. If this were any other medium, it wouldn’t get away with this kind of crap. We filter this kind of material from the view of children in most other mediums, but I’ve rarely ever seen parents crack down on what music their kinds are listening to, especially as music videos gradually become more and more of a recorded table-dance.

When cartoons get aggressively horny, it’s criticized. When video games get aggressively horny, it’s mocked and belittled. When a film is as horny as a music video, you have to verify your age to buy it and deal with the same if you’re ever seen by another human being.

Music? We never see a serious, sustained criticism of just how obsessed with sex the music industry has gotten. Sometimes its obsession with sex is celebrated. And we have no measures in place to actually make it harder for kids to see this stuff.

We wonder why preteen girls are under so much pressure to sexualize themselves and then turn around and applaud the people responsible for it.

There’s a smaller bubble like this among reality television. You guys remember Alana Thompson? Honey Boo Boo? That kid who got her own show after going viral on Toddlers and Tiaras?

You guys know why that show went off the air? Because Alana’s mother was in a relationship with two pedophiles. And admitted to it. And that surprised people, as if the kind of person who would put her child in a fucking toddler pageant would end up being an accessory to pedophilia was a surprise?!

No, everyone was too busy mocking a seven year old for the crime of being a victim of clear and obvious abuse.

Toddler Pageants still go on all over the US and nobody bats a fucking eye at it. Toddlers and Tiaras itself ran for seven years, with only minor controversy when a mother stuffed her daughter’s shirt. People only got mad because someone revealed the whole shitshow for what it truly was.

This is an actual fucking problem. And for all the furor people are giving this one film... nobody’s talking about how we got to this point in the first place. Nobody’s talking about the actual problem. They don’t want to have the uncomfortable discussion about a cultural poison that they’re complicit in.

I call this “Performative Bloodlust.” People will foam at the mouth over how much they think pedophiles should die, but they’re very selective in what they consider “pedophile” to actually mean. When a Youtuber preys on kids they make excuses for them. When a convention deals with child pornography, talking about that is “drama.” When a TV show exists that is really just a socially acceptable way for people to prey on kids... nobody says a fucking word.

A black woman makes a film to talk about these things and Netflix releases a squicky poster... well NOW y’all are chomping at the bit.

Here is the Google Docs with info on this campaign. Basically, the idea is to flood the application website with thoughts, opinions, etc. 

… and then it gets bad.

as powerful as the message these live statues send is, please remember that biden is literally no better than trump and has almost the same goals as him

if you vote third party trump is going to win. there is no if ands or buts

the entire point of getting biden to office is to flip the senate

because if we don’t flip the senate we’re going to have a red congress probably for the rest of our lives and it will do irreparable damage that will take ages to clean up

For adults, the appeal is Sir Patrick Stewart doing a kid’s educational bit in full Shakespearean dress and style; there’s a delightful cognitive dissonance between the very serious presentation and the very simple content.

For very small children, it’s educational: this is the letter “B”; here’s how it’s shaped; here’s some words you know that start with it. Oh, and here’s a word you may not be familiar with that starts with it, so you can recognize that it’s the sound that matters, and not whatever other connection you made between the other two words.

For older kids: you’ve probably heard that “to be or not to be?” speech, or at least part of it, so you can enjoy some of the parody the adults are watching. Also, here’s how to describe how a letter is made - how to teach young siblings who don’t read yet, how to explain both the shape and the sound.

For kids with dyslexia: here’s how you differentiate a “B” from a P or D or E. You may have to go slowly and look carefully at the exact shapes that make up the whole, but there are differences and you can learn to recognize them. 

For teens or young college students: In addition to whichever parts of those are relevant to you, here’s what Shakespearean acting sounds like. Here’s how to enunciate clearly and slowly, so your audience can understand terms they may not recognize and still follow the gist of what you’re saying. If you’re reading Shakespeare in school, try sounding it out like this and see if that helps it make sense.

With the current state of WoW, the number of characters it’s possible to actually like is dwindling hard. All the good characters are dying or being villainized, and characters that used to be good are being turned into sulky weirdos.

My favorite characters USED to consist of

Jaina

Sylvanas

Thrall

Illidan

Varian

Velen

Draka

Grom

Anduin

But Illidan, Draka and Grom were put on a bus while Thrall and Anduin were flanderized. For most of Legion and BFA, Jaina and Sylvanas were the only ones left.

Nowadays my favorite characters look like this

Sylvanas

Nathanos

Jaina

Geya’rah

Talanji

Khadgar

Chromie

My recent decision to aggressively stan Sylvanas is born out of spite, because Blizzard goes “We’re going to take this character who’s been horrifically violated and make them a villain” and I respond with “Oh well fuck you then you creepy assholes.”
